This clinical course focuses on learning theories and their application to elementary school mathematics instruction. Students research a variety of instructional strategies through readings, observation and participation in a clinical placement and determine the appropriateness of each in the learning process. Topics include constructivist learning, differentiated learning, and an in-depth look at how the Common Core State Standards in Mathematics guide mathematics instruction. Additional topics include integrated curricula, the appropriate use of technology, and effective formative, summative and alternative assessment strategies. Students plan two 5-lesson mathematics units for two different grade levels, teaching and reflecting on lessons taught in one of the units.
